I was looking all over the web for Graco Magnum Paint Sprayers and found the best deals (actually "closeout" deals) at CJSpray and was wondering if anyone knows what the best sprayer would be to buy for a guy that just wants to do his deck and interior rooms of his home? Trying to decide between the XR5 and the 190 ES. Thoughts? They have a toll-free helpline, but not really sure what questions to ask as I am pretty novice at painting...

the 190 is a little better sprayer but for what you are planning to do, the xr5 is all you need. the xr5 does make a lot of noise but it is pretty durable for the price. i used to buy both of these pumps for doing decorative concrete. they were cheap enough to use for a year or two, then toss them. wasnt worth my time to try to rebuild them and they pay for themselves pretty fast. i think that the main problem with these was the power switch that i would by-pass when they went bad.

I bought the Milwaukee at Home Depot and love it. The Graco's are considered the best by Pros.
